NEVIS, WEST INDIES

Splendid Caribbean and Atlantic beaches embrace this cozy island of 10,000 people, stretching 8 miles long and 6 miles wide. A one hour drive around the coastal road will take you past colonial and West Indian style homes, historic plantations and, the remains of sugar mills with views up to the unparalleled natural beauty of Nevis Peak and tropical
rain forests.

Green vervet monkeys, brought over by the French in
the 17th century, and mongoose are among the many wildlife who call Nevis home. Then there are the local donkeys, chickens, sheep (tails down), goats (tails up) along with the delightful hummingbirds, the
butterflies and sea birds.
